A week later

"Thanks for coming over, Court." Nikko said as they sat on his couch watching TV.

"I love being here, you know that." Courtney kissed his cheek.

Nikko pulled away. "It's just, I know my place isn't that nice… that's all."

Courtney sat closer to him. "I don't care about your apartment, I like being with you." She looked around. "By the way, where's Stavros?"

"At work." Nikko replied. "We have the place to ourselves. Too bad there's nothing on TV. The M in Mtv now stands for Morons."

"We could go out somewhere?" Courtney stood up.

He pulled her back on to the couch so that she landed on his lap. "Or we could stay in." He put his strong arms around her and began to kiss her, Courtney put her hands on his face and pulled away.

"Someone's in a good mood." She kissed him again.

Nikko shifted her off his lap then turned so that he was on top of her on the couch. He supported his weight so that he wouldn't crush her. After a few minutes of making out he moved on to her neck.

Courtney knew things would got too far if she didn't stop him now, she attempted to push him off, but he didn't even notice the effort. She felt his hand start to creep up her shirt. He pressed his body on hers so that there was no space between them, then he put his hand on the button of her jeans.

"Nikko," she murmured. "Stop."

He went back to kissing her mouth so that she couldn't speak. "Just relax.." he whispered.

She moved her face. "Nikko I'm serious."

Nikko rolled his eyes then pulled himself off her, sitting on the other end of the couch. "Here it comes.." he sighed.

"I'm sorry." Courtney mumbled. "I'm just not ready… it's not you or anything…"

"Don't you trust me?" he asked.

"It's not that."

"Then what is it?"

"I'm just trying to be responsible." She said.

"It's not that big a deal, Courtney." Nikko rolled his eyes.

Courtney hesitated. "Have you ever, done it before? You've had other girlfriends…"

Nikko was quiet for a moment. "Um nope. I haven't."

Courtney smiled. "I'm glad." She leaned in to kiss him.

"Don't tease me." Nikko groaned.

At that moment Stavros walked through the door. "What are you kids up to?"

"Nothing." Courtney quickly stood up.

"Nikko come help me get groceries out of the car." Stavros said.

Nikko got up and followed him out the back door.

Courtney sat on the couch for a few minutes watching TV, when Aimee came in through the front door.

"Where's Nikko, we need him for practice." She asked without even greeting Courtney.

"Um he is helping Stavros with something." Courtney instinctively crossed her arms. She always secretly disliked anyone that Nikko used to date.

Aimee observed the uneven couch and Courtney's messy hair. "So were you two getting busy or something?" She leaned against the doorway.

Courtney fixed her shirt. "We were just…"

"It's kind of cute that Nikko is dating a prude like you, then again, that's not his usual style." Aimee said in a matter of fact tone.

"What do you mean?" she asked.

Aimee raised her eyebrows. "He only likes a girl if she puts out, at least that's how I remember it."

Courtney cleared her throat. "Are you saying that you two have.. had ..sex?"

"Are you serious? What did Nikko tell you?" she asked.

Courtney turned away and shook her head.

"And I wasn't his first." Aimee said smugly. "Trust me, sweetie, I know Nikko. If you don't sleep with him and you don't let him go to parties, like you did at his gig the other night, he is going to go shopping for a new girlfriend. He wants the rock star lifestyle, and that doesn't include you."

Courtney felt tears coming on, but she didn't want to give Aimee another excuse to make fun of her. "I have to go." She mumbled, she ran out the door.

"Bye." Aimee called out in a fake-friendly way. A few moments later Nikko and Stavros came back inside.

"Hey Aimee, where'd Courtney go?" Nikko asked.

"She just decided to leave. Lets go we have band rehearsal." She replied.

Sneak peak:

Courtney leaned close to Nikko and her hands shook as she undid one of the buttons on her shirt.

"what are you doing?" he asked.

"I'm just trying to be the girl you want me to be. Aimee told me."
